Maybe We Should Just Bring Point-N-Shoots…

I think we geeks make things pretty hard on ourselves. Take traveling and taking pictures. For our little jaunt tomorrow—A special pre-wedding trip next week | TrisHusseyDotCom— I know that I’ll want to take pictures. I also know I’d like to travel light. Maybe bringing the D30 isn’t the best idea. Maybe the better idea is to bring a couple of Point-N-Shoots.

I know this really goes against the geek grain. Come on I have two DSLRs and a bunch of lenses. I know that either the D80 or D30 will take great pics, but at what cost? They are certainly bulkier. They are certainly heavier.

Here’s a really “out there” thought…Just bring a couple point-n-shoots (I, ahem, still have a demo unit from Samsung on hand) and my iPad. Unfortunately I don’t have the camera connection kit or I’d be able to connect the camera and upload pictures tomorrow. Maybe that’s a good thing though? Leave the laptop at home. Disconnect for a bit.

Sure I’m going to write about the trip, but I can compose those and post them on Tuesday. Yeah I might Twitpic something here and there …. honestly though, I think it’s time that Sheila and I have some downtime and some time where I’m not tethered to this machine.

Sounds like a plan.
